Jeff wrote in news:GuS9i.9633$fX4.2944@trndny03: It is also unkind to spam. That is what the OP is doing. He doesn't care about popular names. He cares about getting money. unless he's the owner of pollspace, which i sincerely doubt, he's not getting any money for people looking at or clicking on his poll. therefore, it is not spamming. The site has advertising from Google. So he may be getting royalties from that or a cut that the site gets. Plus, he is essentially advertising for the site. I have seen his spam on other newsgroups. i don't like spam any more than you do (& probably less, since i was a sys admin at an ISP), but you really need to get a grip sometimes Jeff why don't you get a real newsreader, with real filters, & save yourself some aggrivation? lee I worked for an ISP, too (I was a release engineer). The spam cut into the company's profits, because they need a few engineers to deal with the problem, more servers to handle the load, etc. That indirectly lowered the value of my options because the company had lower profits to report. As already pointed out, newsreaders only filter out things after you've seen similar things. But the way, I am not very aggravated at the spammers. They're mostly trying to make a living. But not at my expense. Jeff |
